The Town of Odyssey

I was practicing my piano tonight, and the news was on in the background. I overheard the beginnings of an announcement about low-end, illegal chemotherapy drugs being smuggled into a nearby city. Since I just listened to The Pilot, Part 2 today, I knew exactly what they were talking about. "Black market pharmaceuticals, brought in from another country."

Some guy's name on Facebook was "Jay Smith (CauseAndEffect)".

I did a double-take and realized that it didn't say Smouse.

A special speaker is coming in two weeks to speak at our church. The bulletin was making the announcement about his coming with his wife, Priscilla. So I thought of Priscilla Peterson.

I work in a library, and every time I see this magazine come through I think of AIO, for pretty obvious reasons. I mean, even the colors are similar. A little different font, but close at least.



Also, Odyssey Realty.

I was working on a computer today, and a man next to me was playing some type of computer game. I didn't look over to see what it was, but it had those tacky old "Pew, pew!" Noises of old shooting arcade games. My first thought was "Verminoids," and then I though, "Well, Zappazoids is older. It's probably more so Zappazoids."

There's a real estate company called Wooten Basset Real Estate.

A real real estate company???!

I saw a little boy, about 6, at the playground yesterday. Someone said, "Is your name Max?"

He said, "Yes it is. Maxwell Hardin Wells, that is." Just his precision of speech reminded me of a young genius, like a little Eugene.

I was writing an essay recently in which I used NASA as an example, and my writing may or may not have taken some inspiration from Eugene's rant in "Tales of a Small-Town Thug".

Today my sister and I were looking for books to take along on a trip, and there was one by Emerson. I thought the lines, "Emerson's essays!" -Eugene
"Oh, that makes all the difference!" (or something) -Connie
(I forgot the exact episode)

And we mentioned Thoreau, and I thought, "Like Thoreau said man, simplify." - Plato.
"Simplify Schmimplify!"- Jerry Whittaker
(memories of Jerry)

I got an email from someone recently telling me "I can forgive you for what you did to me." And I could hear David Parker's voice saying to Camilla "I didn't ask for your forgiveness."

Also, I just seriously read an article with research by a Professor Boswell. That totally made my day!

I saw two names written one on top of the other in a list, and two names right next to each other stood out. The list looked like this:

Chris
Anthony

I don't think any further explanation is required. It made me smile!

I saw a Britain's Got Talent video where a librarian named Eugene performed a piece of poetry. Need I say more?

There's a new organization called Hand up that helps homeless people/people in need https://handup.us/

IT's THE NOVACOMMIES!! RUN!!

I just watched an X-file where they mentioned handicapped using brain waves to operate devices.

I read a book where it mentions someone named "Connie".

Today I had the unfortunate case of having an AIO quote describe part of my evening: "Forgot my wallet." It's one of those one-liner quotes that I always found funny when I was younger, and today it came to mind after I rushed off after an evening church event to run a few errands when I realized that I did not have my wallet with me. Oops! I didn't even realize until I was sitting a red light with my left turn signal on to turn towards the store and the gas station I planned to stop at, when the thought struck me. It became a right turn signal, a trip home, and a plan to do errands tomorrow instead.

I'm trying to remember for sure which episode "Forgot my wallet" is from. I keep thinking that it might be "Chores No More," but it might be a different one with some of those same kids/types of kids that were in a few episodes that didn't do much and that nobody really cared about. Somebody let me know if they know for sure!

I've seen a yogurt brand called "MilkandEgg"

It is indeed "Chores No More", at the beginning, with reference to Duane saving money be making Ivan buy his movie ticket for him.

That sounds like a super weird name to me, but whatever. Still a fun reminder of AIO!

Thanks for confirming the episode name, Leonard. I remembered that somebody had to pay for somebody else's ticket (and I think there's a bad Star Wars impression in there too) but I wasn't totally sure about the episode.

Actually, it was a flavor.
